Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

The carriage swayed slowly towards the palace. Ziwei's eyes in the carriage turned red the moment she left, and she couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

Her bad premonition became more serious day by day.

If Erkang really had something fishy and did something he shouldn't have done, what should she do?

When Ziwei is not in love, she is still quite clear-headed and smart, but this clarity and intelligence make her extremely painful, because Erkang's abnormality makes her know that such an ending is very likely to happen.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the palace gate, where several guards were guarding.

"Miss, we're here." Jinsuo said as he pulled up the car curtain.

Ziwei was in a daze until she seemed to hear Jinsuo's voice and then came to her senses.

During this time, she recalled many things with Erkang, some sweet and some painful, but it seemed that those sweet memories slowly faded away.

"Let's go." Ziwei's sweet voice was a little hoarse. She looked very haggard and got off the carriage with unsteady steps.

After asking the coachman to wait here for a moment, Ziwei took a deep breath and then walked towards the palace gate.

"Who are you? No outsiders are allowed to enter or leave here." The guard stopped Ziwei diligently.

"I want to see the Emperor for something...Oh no, the Emperor." Ziwei changed her words with difficulty, as if she remembered Qianlong's dislike for her.

The guard looked at Ziwei suspiciously. This person was very strange. How could he meet the emperor whenever he wanted?

"No! Hurry up and leave!" the guard refused with a stern face.

Ziwei looked at the guards with tears in her eyes, but she showed no sympathy for them.

He even started standing guard, ignoring Ziwei's presence.

Ziwei was at a loss. Even though she was now a bondservant, in her heart, Qianlong was her biological father and the palace was her home.

But now it is difficult for her to return to the palace.

Ziwei couldn't help but feel sad. She knew she would encounter all this, but Erkang didn't sympathize with her suffering at all.

When Jinsuo saw Ziwei, who was so heartbroken that she was about to collapse, she hurried forward to support her with concern.

"Please tell Ziwei to pass the message." Ziwei forced herself to cheer up and bowed.

The guard was completely confused. Who else could it be but you? I am just passing the message for you. My life is not my life, right?

If he disturbed the noble man, how could he afford it?

"No, ma'am, please go back." The guard refused again with a serious face.

Ziwei was very anxious, but she was powerless and could only worry in vain.

Suddenly Jinsuo thought of something.

"Miss, is Princess Hexi's token still there?"

Ziwei's eyes lit up. Yes, at that time Hexi was worried that Erkang was abnormal, so she gave Ziwei a token to facilitate her to enter the palace to report.

Originally Ziwei didn't take it seriously at all, and could even be said to have ignored it.

But now it's like a life-saving drug.

"Yes, exactly!"

Ziwei hurriedly took two steps at a time and went to the carriage to find the token.

The guards looked at the token handed over by Ziwei and hesitated. Of course they knew Princess Hexi, but they couldn't tell whether the token was real or fake.

After all, Hexi only needs to scan her face to return to the palace, so she doesn't need this token.

This guard had just started his job and was not very familiar with these things. Fortunately, there was a slightly older guard next to him.

I saw some movement here and came over.

The guard was nearly thirty years old and looked very serious.

Looking at Ziwei's appearance, the old guard always felt that she looked familiar.

After all, Ziwei had lived in this palace before.

The old guard recognized it immediately after taking the token handed over by the guard.

"This is indeed Princess Hexi's token. May I know who the lady is?"

"I, Ziwei, greet the adults."

"Ziwei?" The old guard whispered the familiar name.

As I was reading this, I suddenly remembered that Ziwei was also a prominent figure in the past!

He and the swallow caused chaos in the palace.

I heard that in the end, a scandal about the real and fake princess was exposed.

However, this matter was suppressed in the end, and no one knows whether it is true or not.

One of them is Ziwei.

Judging from Ziwei's condition, she doesn't seem to be living a good life. Her eyes are no longer as lively as before, but look much more tired.

Ziwei uncomfortably avoided the old guard's inquiring gaze.

The old guard withdrew his gaze with understanding.

"Madam, it's not that I don't want to pass on the message to you, but Princess Hexi is not in the palace at the moment."

What this meant was that even if she wanted to see Princess Hexi, she had no choice but to go to the princess's mansion.

Ziwei was speechless for a moment. At present, she could only take out this thing to prove that she was not here to cause trouble.

But the person she really wanted to see was Qianlong.

The young guard watched the whole process, understood Ziwei's intention, and whispered something to the old guard.

The old guard suddenly realized that he wanted to see the emperor.

"Yes, please let me know."

"no!"

"Ah?" Ziwei was confused. Why didn't it work? Didn't they verify her identity?

The old guard explained: "Madam, you can't see the emperor whenever you want. You need the emperor's order to enter the palace to see him."

"Then why can Princess Hexi enter and leave the palace freely?" Jinsuo spoke up for Ziwei impulsively.

He Xi said she could enter and she could enter, but her young lady was stopped at the palace gate and was in a dilemma.

How unfair! They are all the emperor's daughters.

Ziwei also felt embarrassed, but she couldn't go home.

Especially the look in the old guard's eyes made her feel very uncomfortable.

She understood the look in the old guard's eyes.

It's clearly saying: That's Princess Hexi, who can you compare with?

Ziwei felt humiliated and powerless, but she could not deny that it was all true.

She grew up in great pampering and was a legitimate princess. When she grew up, she married Fu Kang'an. She had a smooth life and was loved by Emperor Qianlong. It seemed that all good things were gathered in one person.

And what about her? She tried so hard to protect her love, but now she finds that it is just a handful of sand, the tighter she holds on, the faster it falls apart.

"Madam, please don't make things difficult for us. Without the emperor's decree, we cannot let you in." The old guard was still polite, but the young guard next to him had a sharper look in his eyes.

It was as if she was here to cause trouble.

The old guard couldn't help but think of the rumors that had been circulating in the palace before, saying that the matter of the real and fake princesses was probably not groundless. There was indeed something to this matter!

Ziwei felt as embarrassed as if she couldn't enter her home, but I don't know what's wrong with her brain.

A good hand of cards was played badly. A dignified imperial daughter was enrolled in the bondservant class. That was ruining her own future!

However, this thought only flashed through the old guard's mind.

He was just about to chase Ziwei away as he couldn't decide to let her in.

A voice came over.

"Ziwei? Why are you here?"
